• On our KUsports.com message boards, user Pay_Heed posted a video of his 4-year-old daughter who adorably says she doesn't want to see any KU basketball games next year because "there are other players now."

With tears in her eyes, she repeatedly tells her parents she wants the Jayhawks' old players back.

"I can't even watch KU any more," she says after listing Jeff Withey, Ben McLemore and Elijah Johnson as her favorites.

Yea, me too. Been that way for the last 50 years. Kansas has been able to reload with quality people. Everyone is so proud of the 4 graduating seniors and the exradinary balance Self achieves with these student/athletes. In additioin to the NBA players and future coaches, I'm hoping some of these guys go onto great professional careers, i.e. Tommy Kivisto, Ken Koenigs, Chris Barthouse, etc.

Yes ~ even I ( a Jayhawk fan for 66 years) can empathize with this young person. Every year-after-year, the deep sense of loss ~~ but then Voila' ~ the sun rises again the following year and this particular "cycle of life" begins anew.

She is a wonderful example of ~ and a tribute to what it means to be a bona fide member of the GREATEST ~ THE JAYHAWK NATION. We are definitely in good hands (albeit small in this particular instance) going forward.

in a parallel universe, James Naismith stayed in Canada and invented basketball there, where it became a minor sport like curling.

At the same time, the father of modern curling,--note: the game actually dates back to medieval Scotland, Canadian Dudley McNaughton, came to America instead of to Canada and introduced the game on the winter ice of Orchard Lake, Michigan, instead of Montreal, Canada. McNaughton quickly left Orchard Lake, Michigan and became the first curling instructor of the University of Kansas.

Eventually McNaughton became athletic director and then chancellor and Agg Phallen became the curling coach with the greatest record in the first half century of the game's existence in USA.

The greatest curler of all time, Chilt Wamberlain, enrolled at KU in 1957 and lead KU to three strait national curling championships, defeating UNC each time in the finals, and went on to set every individual curling record in the NCA (the National Curling Association), while also claiming to romance tens of thousands of women.

A series of great coaches reclaimed KU curling from a low point in the late 1970s. Barry Lown turned the tide by hiring Med Danning as his assistant and recruiting Med's son Manny Danning to become greatest curling big man in KU's second half century. Coach Lown was followed by Woy Rilliams who recruited the entire country and won 9 national curling championships in his 15 years at KU before telling UNC to stick it in their ears and moving to retire in Wrightsville with his wonderful wife Wonder. Frob Bederick, his AD was never fired, but rather retired to Wrightsville with Woy, and together they operated a fishing charter on a 31 foot Albemarle until they figured out that Albury Brothers built a much better boat in the Bahamas and they picked a wooden one up for a song, when fiberglass got popular. Frad Bedericks, Frob's son, went to KU and became an assistant curling coach at KU before going on to fame and fortune by taking over the reins at UNC and cleaning up the dysfunction there created by Smeen Dith, who always wished he had gone to KU to learn curling under Agg Phrallen, but was turned down as a walk on for having a psych profile the would lead him to later betray KU curling by forcing its head coach, his former assistant, to recruit only west of the Mississippi. After the 9 curling championships, it was believed that KU could rise no higher in the curling annals. But with the hire of Sill Belf, from Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical, a run of national curling championships followed that continues to this day.
